Financial Foundations has partnered with CashCourse (www.cashcourse.org) in order to give you all beneficial financial resources. CashCourse is an online financial tool that has many resources and tools to help you understand and manage your personal finances and it’s FREE to all Baylor students!

It’s very easy to sign up and to navigate through. Here are some really good financial tools on CashCourse that I find helpful:

1. Articles – There are several articles on CashCourse that go over many financial topics including budgeting, student loans, credit cards, identity theft, and more.
2. Budget Wizard – Is a budgeting tool that you can use to enter in your income and expenses to help manage your personal money.
3. Financial Experts – Ask questions to financial experts, or look through the Q&As of other students who asked questions.
4. Featured Videos – A collection of short videos that introduce and discuss key financial topics.
5. Quizzes – Learn how much you already know or what you can learn by taking one of their quizzes over key financial topics such as student loans.
6. My Favorites: – You can add articles that you wish to save to your favorites using the button at the very bottom of the page that says “My Favorites”. This will give you easier access to these articles at a later date by going to your favorites (heart icon at the top of the site), where the pages you added will be listed.

There are many other financial tools on CashCourse that you may use. All of these tools are free to all Baylor students and is a great resource that you should take advantage of! I would suggest that you try to explore through their site, try out a few of their helpful tools, and look through a number of their articles.

If you are unsure about how to use CashCourse, we have instructions available to help you register, login, and navigate throughout the site. If you still have questions and concerns about your personal finances, please contact us at (254) 710-3109 or email us at Financial Foundations to schedule an individual meeting with our coordinator.

Keep an eye out on our calendar and website next semester for upcoming workshops and good luck with your finals!
